I read the reviews listed on this page after booking my family for a long weekend at the Plantation Inn. I was starting to expect the worst! However, everything was just the opposite! The Plantation is lovely. The rooms were clean and very nice. Pool was spotless and there was a staff member checking to be sure those using the pool were truly ...

The pictures on website doesn't show the truth about hotel. The outside needs to be maintained and painted. The rooms have totally different bed coverings as shown on website. They look out-dated, smells weird and could use another renovation. I understand this is a plantation hotel that is really really old, however, it doesn't have to ...

When my children were younger the Plantation catered to the older crowd. It seems now that we are the older crowd, they have changed gears. A lot of these unruly children are from the outside (They charge $5.00 to allow non guests to use the pool). Very disappointed in this. The renovation of the rooms was appreciated.

the hotel was dirty. the room was dirty and mold and bedbugs. there were 2 wires sticking out of the door. i wouldn't stay here again.

I had a wonderful stay. You cant imagine what it is like seeing the Manatees in their natural habitat. It is something everyone needs to do once. The property was perfect and the staff friendly and informative. The tour service was right there on property which made it very easy. The rooms had just been renovated so very nice and big.

HOTEL WAS VERY DATED, MOLDY AND MUSTY,
AND VERY MUCH IN NEED OF RENOVATION.IF YOUR JUST LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO FLOP FOR THE NIGHT IT WILL DO.THE VENTILATION AND AC SEEMED TO PUMP CIGARETTE SMOKE ODOR THROUGHOUT THE HOTEL AND OUR ROOM.
PARKING WAS ALSO VERY LIMITED.I WOULD NOT STAY THERE AGAIN. IT IS DEFINATLEY NOT A CLASSY PLACE, I'VE BEEN IN NICER
MOTEL 6'S...HONESTLY.

The hotel is on the Crystal River with a great view and manicured grounds. Rooms were nice and clean but could not connect to the internet. Food is above average and prices are reasonable. I will stay there again on my next trip.

We had reserved and paid for a standard room but where given a deluxe room without even requesting it. Enjoyed the pool and golf. I found the staff attentive and rooms where clean.
I had read previous review and was a little put off but my experience was good and we have rebooked for a summer golf outting.
